Baco Noir seems like a very appropriate choice of watch for the trip. Glad to see you getting full use of the RV almost right away. Seems like you and Laurie made the best choice for your lifestyle. Have a fun and safe trip!

The view and wind out here in Wyoming won’t change for a while, but it’s better than Kansas.   Almost to Casper and heading to Billings, Montana tonight. |

muckymark yes, got it a few weeks ago. Sorry, thought I had posted that before. Anyway, I am selling the 1992 Rolex Sub I got recently, and the Sinn U1, and have also sold all the other diver watches I had. I still want a dive watch in my collection, and this one is also part of the Bremont Armed Forces Collection, same as my Broadsword. It has 300m water resistant, and both the crowns are screwed down. Part of my goal to trim down my collection  . A few more pics:     Comes on a blue sailcloth strap, and also includes a navy blue "Temple Island" (an island in the Thames just north of Henley-on-Thames, where the Bremont HQ is located) rubber strap:  Cheers, Carl

CHIP fitting color indeed! Man, I would die in that heat. It is going to hit about 75-80 here today, and even at that temperature I need a Siesta! (a Siesta for me being from appx 10am - 7pm  ). Anyway, the orange looks great on that NOMOS. That is a great dial!

You wouldn't guess from the terrain, Baco, that Casper is 5K elevation. Billings is 3,123' elevation.   We live at about 6000 ft just west of Denver. We are about 30 miles from Billings and it’s HOT! It’s in the mid-90’s up here today. |
